Okay - I barely ever post... but I saw this and just thought... "Really?"
With the current Eurozone crisis, the fact that Greece have practically already defaulted on their debts, and the ever increasing likely hood that they will exit the Euro, is this really something which they should be working on?
Personally, I'd just like to see them put a little bit more effort into reclaiming the billions of Euro in taxes owed due to a majority who aren't declaring their income...
Just my 2 (euro)cents...
But on my iPhone too the new theme is SLOW. Only since I got my iPhone 4 (having previously had a 3G) had I bothered with the full slashdot (as opposed to the text only version which I can no longer find) as it was too slow to load. Having just tried this new version on my iPhone I can't believe how slow it is.
On a 1 year old macbook on RockMelt (which is just chrome really) => SLOW
On my 1 year old Toshiba laptop on Opera => SLOW
Oh dear:( Looks like I might be making a new text only version...
If you're looking for a backup solution - using rsync might work for you? I think this can send files acros FTP.
Also - it backs up incrementally - so you should file that your bandwidth isn't screwed in the process.
As for being portable, it might take a bit of work, but we've got it running on a windows box through cygwin.

Is this really the right to to try this? when wi-fi connections are popping up all over the place and the internet's bigger than it ever has been before?

Spelt Rsync wrong - what an idiot... (thought I might as well say it so that others didn't)

Shouldn't the question be where are they hiding? After all, I've met a lot of french people rather like neanderthals....
But how do I actually compile the thing - can I play it once I've compiled it? I've never compiled anything before in my life... :(
How does one object??!? all these patents are going out of control. Any ideas? Chris
